Ah, but to the F and J passengers, you are 'the masses'
What BA promises seems to be a little unclear. On my home page I am promised 'first class check-in and boarding' as a GCH, but the tier benefits comparer for Gold, Silver and Bronze list an undifferentiated 'priority' boarding. In any event, it's hardly an uber-luxury privilege for F passengers to be allowed to board ahead of everyone else except Golds, Silvers and Bronzes, and I struggle to see why it's unreasonable for premium cabin passengers to be called for boarding ahead of Golds, Silvers, Bronzes, etc. if time and airport layout make that feasible.
